Santander Universities

Bath Spa University has been a partner of Santander Universities since 2014.

The partnership offers students and staff a series of academic and employability opportunities funded by the bank. These include:

Mobility scholarships for staff and students of the University to study or conduct research overseas

Support for enterprise and entrepreneurial initiatives/projects

Part-funded internships opportunities with local SMEs

Through its Santander Universities Global Division, Santander has supported higher education in the UK since 2007, providing funding for scholarships, mobility awards and research grants with the aim of supporting students and academic staff.

Santander renews partnership with Bath Spa University

Santander, through its Santander Universities Global Division, has renewed its partnership with Bath Spa University.

The partnership was signed by Sigga Sigurdardottir, Chief Customer and Innovation Officer, Santander UK, and Professor Christina Slade, former Vice-Chancellor of Bath Spa University, on 19 May. Now in its third year, the bank provides funding for mobility, research, and enterprise activities. The renewal will provide funding for these areas through to 2020.

The range of opportunities available to students and staff means there should be something for everyone. We launch funding opportunities throughout the year, and encourage students and staff to keep an eye out for information in newsletters, on social media, and regularly visiting this page for updates.
